Flo and I tacked off Connor before I went to Fabi again. The horse was nibbling on his hay while I started packing my things. I made sure my trailer was secured on my car before loading the iron closet where all Fabi's stuff was in with my name on it. I pushed it over the small rubber thresholds of the tail lift before I secured it between the elastic bands I placed in my trailer. I hung up a net with hay for Fabi before I took Fabi out of his stable. I tied him to the trailer before quickly grooming the white gelding. I placed a therapy blanket over his back that had a navy blue color. The therapy blanket contained magnets so it was good for his muscles. I placed some travel boots on in the same navy blue color and handed him a cookie before I placed him on the trailer with a little bit of help from Flo. She stood at the beginning of the trailer so she could close the tail lift when he was in. When Fabi was stood nice and comfortable I climbed out and Flo and I shared a hug.

Amelia: "call or text me when I can help you with something okay? I will see you at the vent day!"

Flo: "see you then Amelia!"

I looked to the brown haired guy behind her and we smiled at each other softly. He looked almost kind of shy?

Lando: "see you around."

Amelia: "bye."

I turned on my heels with my hands on my pocket and climbed into the BMW. I started the engine before I heard a knock on the window of my car. I let it down and looked into the blue eyes of Lando.

Amelia: "hai."

Lando: "hey. Uhm... quick question."

Amelia: "yes?"

Lando: "can I take you out on a date?"

It fell out of his mouth quickly but still slow enough to let me understand. I raised my eyebrows and looked at the guy in front of me. I know I said I didn't want to start that... but maybe I do.

Lando: "sorry... I uhm... I'm gonna go..."

Amelia: "wait Lando! I would love to go out with you sometime. Just hit me sometime and then we'll get a date and everything."

Lando: "great."

He smiled at me before we exchanged our byes. I reversed the car out of the parking lot with the trailer behind it and waved one last time to the Norris siblings in this warmer day in April. I turned my radio on a little louder as a song that I liked started playing. I turned my car onto the highway and drove the ride back home most of the time on there. I arrived back at the stables where I loaded Fabi out and patted him on the neck. I let him in the paddock before erasing his blanket and travel boots. I cleaned my stuff and placed it away before pulling my riding boots on again. I had changed my competition clothes for my casual riding clothes. I walked to the indoor arena with Kensington after tacking him up and placing the jumps in the indoor arena where the lights were on. I passed Carina the stable owner and greeted her.

Amelia: "hello Carina!"

Carina: "hello Amelia! Congrats on your new title. I will shirt out your jackets soon!"

Amelia: "thank you! You don't need to change the jackets tho. It's fine like this."

Carina: "none sense! Here if you give it to me now I will be done before your done!"

I took off the coat and handed it to her. She made the back of it herself as a fun thing. Every time I grabbed a title she changed it. It was sweet. I mounted the dark bay horse and started my training with the gelding.

I rode 2 more horses after Kensington and they did well just like Kensington did. After laying my tack away I walked to the big whiteboard that hung in the middle of the stable and took a marker in my hand. My helmet still on my head as the chin band hung loose and my boots were half open as it was easier to kneel like that. I placed some 'R' marks behind the names of the horses I had just rode and then laid the marker down. I walked to my tack room and threw my microwave meal in the microwave. After a few mins it's it beeped and I took it out. I sat down and while scrolling thru my phone I ate the meal. The nutritions weren't to high in these meals but it was fine. With my helmet and boots still on I threw away the plastic bowl and I quickly washed my fork. When I was done I took the small cart and walked around the long rows of stables. The one with show jumpers, dressage horses and eventing horses. For each of the three stable rows we had a head trainer. I was the one for the jumpers. I also was only one for the jumpers but that was alright because I liked jumping them. I had 13 horses in my row and then also Fabi. I trained 14 horses in total. Outside of that I give lessons at my barn 3 days a week. Every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday. Today was a Monday but I cancelled the lessons for the day as I had just came back with Fabi and was still busy with the horses here. I gave all of the 42 horses their foods. Afterwards I deeded hay and then it was time to ride the last horse of the day. I placed the saddle and other things at the grooming place before walking to the chestnut gelding called Quince. I clicked my tongue before calling his name. Quince was my favorite boy. I rode him since he was 3 years old. So that is almost 4 years. I tacked him up with his brown saddle, blue saddlepad, brown fur tendon boots, brown fur bell boots and a brown martingale. I mounted him in the arena and did some jumping with him. I jumped off with a big smile and placed multiple kisses on his nose. I tacked him off and then took a broom in my hand. I cleaned my part of the stable with it before checking every horse for their hay and water. It all looked good before I locked my tack room and switched off the lights making the stables go dark. I climbed into my car and drove home for 10 minutes. When I arrived it was already 21:30PM. I took a shower cleaning myself before climbing into bed with my laptop on my lap, my transparant framed glasses on my nose and a bedside lamp lighting the room. I answered some e-mails and made sure my agenda was up to date with all the lessons, competitions and all the other planned things before closing it again. It was 22:37PM. I turned off the light and laid my glasses away before drifting off to a steady sleep.
